Chapter 253: 253 Brother Lin is here

Under Ji Nuannuan’s leadership, the children walked Zai Zai around the entire factory.

The adults slowly followed behind, discussing the future development of the base.

"Sister Mansheng, I plan to divide the factory into three areas: activity area, rest area, and medical area."

Yan Yueqing pointed to the factory in front of her, "Most of the activity area will be outdoors. Once the main door on the first floor is opened, it can connect to the outside lawn. From here, the view is very wide."

Looking in the direction of her pointing, Du Mansheng imagined the scene after the door was opened and nodded, "Indeed, that’s not bad."

"As for the rest area, it will primarily consist of the animals’ bedrooms, adopting a communal sleeping arrangement. For pregnant animals, there will be separate resting areas. The medical area will be divided into daily check-ups and operating rooms, among other sections, with resident veterinarians taking care of the animals’ health."

"Right, I also plan to tidy up that large piece of lawn outside. Three-quarters of it will be maintained for the animals to play on freely. As for the remaining quarter, half will be dug out for a swimming pool, and the other half will be used for growing vegetables."

Du Mansheng chuckled, "Growing vegetables?"

"Mm-hmm," Yan Yueqing nodded earnestly, "The staff we recruit from outside are either homeless or disabled. The original intention of establishing the base is to at least ensure they have enough to get by. To be honest, some really don’t have the capability to work, but if they come with hopes, we can’t let them leave empty-handed."

Her eyes twinkled like stars, "Those who can’t care for animals can learn, and those who have communication difficulties can practice. If they can’t do anything, many people will feel they are living on handouts, and their dignity will be hurt."

Du Mansheng understood, "So, you plan to clear a patch of land for them to grow vegetables?"

"Yes, they can earn their livelihood through labor, which is respectable anywhere."

Du Mansheng gave a thumbs up, "You are so thoughtful."

Looking around the dilapidated factory, he seemed to already envision its future state.

Yan Yueqing continued, "As for the second floor, I plan to develop most of the space into an indoor pet playground, with a small portion reserved as a warehouse. On the third floor, I want to build a staff canteen and create an open-air balcony, similar to a cat café style. The hardworking staff in the base can go up there to listen to music and enjoy the breeze in their leisure time."

"Yueqing, I’ve also taken Xiaoxiao to cat shelters and pet hospitals before, so I roughly understand their setup, but none are as good as yours!" Du Mansheng said with a smile, "With such great facilities, it doesn’t feel like a rescue base at all— I’d like to bring my pets here to play."

"That could be a service we offer," Yan Yueqing quickly nodded, "I plan to make this a gathering place for stray animals, so those lonely and helpless pups have a place to shelter from wind and rain."

"I hope all the pups in the base are healthy and chubby, looking no different from domestic pets, prompting those kind-hearted people who want to adopt animals to gradually replace buying with adopting."

"Of course, we also welcome people to come and visit with their pets at any time. It’s a way to indirectly promote the place. After all, most of those who rescue stray animals are these people."

Du Mansheng nodded continuously, "Yeah, I think your plan is very comprehensive!"

Jun Jiu followed behind the two, frantically taking notes.

Unlike the past, where he dealt with orders worth tens of millions in an instant, only needing to look at the summary reports submitted by his subordinates.

What he learned today was how to build a base from scratch.

The matriarch’s thoughts were indeed delicate as hair, considering such minute details, truly remarkable!

Take notes, take notes!

It seems that the family head sent him here because he truly wanted him to learn from Miss Yan?

Before, he had thought the family head was stingy, afraid that Young Master Yan would constantly berate him, so he was sent here to boost favorability?

Mm! It’s just that his own vision was too narrow, the family head is truly good to him!

Thumbs up!

The planning for the base was quickly completed.

The three of them walked to the front of the former employees’ dormitory.

Jun Jiu said, "After the milk powder factory closed, a few employees stayed here and never left. I talked with the owner of the milk powder factory, and he said they were all the most honest and simple-hearted! Unfortunately, they have no one left at home, so he voluntarily dropped the price a bit, hoping we wouldn’t drive them away until they found new jobs."

Yan Yueqing understood what Jun Jiu meant and thought to herself that the owner of the milk powder factory was really nice, willing to forgo some profit to let those few people stay in the factory longer.

Apparently, he hoped they would make a good impression on the new owner and continue working here, right? But saying the purpose outright might displease the new owner, so he took a more roundabout way!

It showed that the owner of the milk powder factory was truly a great benefactor!

Yan Yueqing asked, "Have you met those people?"

"I have seen their information," Jun Jiu thought for a moment, "They are older, all over fifty, and looked honest from their photographs. I heard they used to work very efficiently at the factory. But with their age, it’s a bit troublesome to find work outside now."

"Having these honest old workers around will speed up the setup of the new base. They know where everything is better than anyone else."

Du Mansheng said with a smile, "Yes."

"When they come back, Xiao Jiu, you go and have a look. If they’re good, keep them all."

"Alright."

By the time they finished arranging everything, it was already noon, and Brother Lin arrived at the base with his daughter Weiwei.

He was carrying two old but very clean large bags and nearly knelt down when he saw Yan Yueqing.

Jun Jiu swiftly held him up, "Brother Lin, we’re all working for Miss Yan here, let’s not go back to the old ways."

He even made a joke, "If you insist on kneeling, then I’d have to follow your example in the future."

Lin Gang, a man as tough as iron, had tears in his eyes, "Thank you, Miss Yan, thank you, Mr. Jun."

Since his disability, he had faced too much discrimination.

Jobs he was fully capable of doing were lost to him simply because others prioritized those who were physically whole.

Weiwei was seriously ill, his wife had run off with someone else, and life’s blows came one after another, leaving him in pain and gradually numb as he carried on.

Later, through the Big Cat Live Streaming Platform, he met the benefactor of his life—Miss Yan!

She not only gifted to help treat Weiwei but also gave him a proper job... How could Lin Gang not be overwhelmed with gratitude?

Yan Yueqing said kindly, "Big Brother Lin, you’ve come at the perfect time. I’ve already discussed the factory matters with Jun Jiu, and I’ll have him take you later to get familiar with your future work area."

Lin Gang nodded repeatedly.

"Weiwei." Yan Yueqing looked at the frail girl with a smiling face, "Dad needs to go take care of some work stuff first, how about you join us and go play with the other little brothers and sisters, okay?"

Lin Weiwei lifted her eyes and asked her dad tentatively, "Can I?"

"Of course, you can," Lin Gang nodded, "Just don’t run or jump around too much."

His daughter had a heart condition and was scheduled for surgery next month. Being confined at home, she hardly had anyone to play with, so naturally, Lin Gang was delighted as could be at the prospect of her having playmates her own age.
